Do the Earth Lyrics

The song Do the Earth is performed by Guided by Voices in the album named Live from Austin, TX in the year 2007 .



here's a picture from the house of meat
are you the person i'm scheduled to meet
to a*sess my skeleton's worth?
do the earth
curtains open and the guests are fried
in my attempt to seem dignified
i re-enact my birth
do the earth

do the earth i wanna ramble in opium fields
playing tricks on the invasion boys
penetrator like a space invader - do the earth
do the earth- this tear will never wash away
on any human sanitation day
and i will starve to death and wither away
unless you feed me

I'm too tired to run from the tiger
i'm too dumb to hide in the bushes

i'm a human costume with veins of gold
i'll face the punching bag - do what i'm told
til i get old and have to dwell
in the valley of the ironman

do the earth -- you beckon me and leave it up to fate
you offer salvation and i salivate
and the thought of my next free cheese
hear the voice
